Everything has a life cycle. So after Reddit user WarBeast86 made a post on the platform, asking: "What was ruined because too many people did it?" people have been paying respects to their life's treasures that have been (slowly) fading into irrelevance.

Some of the most common examples focus on over-saturated internet trends; for example, influencer culture has become so prevalent that it has led to a loss of authenticity and genuine connection online. Numerous hobbies and activities such as thrift shopping have also been mentioned as hurting from commercialization which, in turn, has led to a loss of their original appeal.

Overall, the post serves as a vivid reminder that it's important to appreciate the stuff that makes you happy because you never know when it can be taken away from you.

35 Things People Can No Longer Enjoy Because Too Many People Ruined Them Basically anything outdoorsy. Hiking trails, National Parks, fishing spots, etc.

It's fun when you're the only person on the trail, the lake, or at the camp site. It's not so fun when you're hiking and someone is blasting their music on their Bluetooth speaker, when the lake is packed and people decide to fish 10 feet away from you and are obnoxiously loud, or you go to a National Park and there is graffiti and trash everywhere, random people's names carved into the largest and oldest trees on Earth, and mobs of tourists taking selfies in the middle of the trail.

People don't know how to respect nature. People don't appreciate silence. People don't know how to "leave no trace" or appreciate the natural beauty in the world around them.

    For anyone not in the know, MLM = multi level marketing. Basically pyramid schemes pretending not to be pyramid schemes like Amway, JuicePlus, Younique, Osbourne Books, BodyShop at Home, etc etc. The people who sell this at craft fairs, to friends and family and so on are actually the customers and usually make little to no profit, but the business model works on gaslighting. Really worth a google, very interesting and good to be aware of.

    Ugh... MLMs... otherwise known as "The reason you should be wary when a classmate from 30 years ago who you barely knew suddenly messages you" - and hey... I don't have a drinking problem... but I can make crochet'd slippers! (sigh. Yes... a little nonplussed that craft fairs are getting choked to death with ... well.. NON-CRAFTS)

    Agreed! Though I dont mind if the non-craft items are materials to make crafts. Ive seen a few lately where a smaller local craft store has had a booth selling some of the basic equipment and supplies needed or even little kits they assembled with everything needed and directions to make a simple craft. Those can be fun and give them visibility.

    Etsy is a h o t m e s s! I've started reporting those kinds of pages whenever I catch a bunch of em til I hit a certain point of anxiety, throw my hands in the air, then say "at least I've made a small dent"; I don't think Etsy takes much more action than ban the account (which I'm sure a new clone will pop up as soon as they do), but I keep hoping maybe I'll inspire others to start joining me and make it annoying for them at the very least. I'm sure MANY of these stores are just additional channels from the same people. If you suspect a store, check the Etsy TOS and flag these people (ex: copyright violations, misinfo/misleading)! I am a major proponent of fan *art*, but this ain't it!

I fell in love with one local bakery at the Farmers market that was walkable from one of my former apartments. Sadly for my wallet they moved thier cafe to a bigger building right by one of my schools. Fortunately the ice cream shop is out of the way and hard to park near.

    My husband and I sell rocks, gems and minerals. We refuse to sell anything that's not natural stone, even coated stones. It's very annoying when we work at a gem show and get set up next to someone selling fakes or man-made glass. We started selling when we saw a woman at a show selling a huge piece of "amber"--it was crackled plastic.

    I honestly think there should be laws about owning multiple properties. There's a housing shortage in the UK, at least, and you have landlords buying up all the properties and charging extortionate rent, pricing out first time buyers who are subsequently locked into the extortionate renting model. Not to mention all the fricking AirBnBs! As a millennial, if you don't have help/inheritance from your older relatives it's nigh on impossible to get onto the property ladder in some areas.

    I miss the days of amateur videos. Classic Smosh. Crappy, but still sent entertaining music videos of video games. Actual real reactions that didn't feel like a fake, acted out script.

    Now everything is about fitting in to the algorithm, likes and subscriptions, obnoxious influences. YouTube is all clean, square, corporate, and sanitized.

All of them putting 10,000 watts worth of lighting all around their house, completely washing out the night sky. Can't forget their bored f**k trophies breaking into garages and trespassing and street racing on dark narrow country roads because there's nothing else to do here.

    When I was young we had this tradition before our cities yearly festival started. We would each get a rubber boat (anything that floated really) and just drift in a nearby lake while drinking beer. The drift took around an hour or so. Then we would go to the festival.

    Started out with maybe 20-30 of us for a couple of years. Then some douche bag "popular" guy took note of it. Had to turn it into some massive event with musicians playing and calling for the media to come there etc. Just turned a chill event with friends to something where you couldn't hear your own thoughts because there were so many people there. They even had to close it down after a while because some of the visitors littered too much. Left their boats and s**t in the river etc.

    Same thing happened in a university town not that far from us. Some students started a "festival" where we played a more relaxed form of baseball. Sign up as a team, play a tournament, first price was like a bottle of vodka or some s**t like that. Completely free of charge. We slept in tents and drank, super chill and fun thing.

    In comes the capitalist mind. Turns the whole thing into some commercialized shitshow where its now the world championship tournament of that casual baseball. Huge entry fees, beer tents, artists.

    Like f**k man. What's wrong with setting up a tent, drinking a couple of beers, playing baseball drunk and just having a good time? Noooooooo we need to capitalize on this.

    Made both of those things boring as hell.

    A once-pristine mountain lake that was peaceful and excellent for fishing and swimming was ruined by development.

    As I've previously commented, the pine trees surrounding the lake have been cut down and houses built everywhere.

    Discharge from motorboats and runoff from development have polluted the once-pure water. The fish are gone and the air stinks of pollution instead of being lightly scented by surrounding pine trees.

    The popularity of online gaming has ruined campaign based play. Story mode is now backseat to online multiplayer.

    The popularity of online add ons is also very annoying, because now games seem purposefully incomplete. The game sells with a short bare bones storyline, but don’t worry, you can buy “extra” story modes.

    An ever smaller niche that has died a death is couch coop. My wife and I love playing together, but so many games that would be sooo good, either involve two copies of everything or are poorly implemented so the player 2 feels like a guest in the game rather than an integral part of the experience.

    I remember a few years ago I visited a farmers' market where an older gentleman, maybe around 70, sold pickled veggies in jars. He had cut the carrots and cucumbers right against the glass into cute shapes, and made up little stories about them for the buyers- there were little bears with carrot slice heads and cauliflower bodies, "maidens" with big, poofy, cucumber-skin skirts... I miss those kinds of sellers so, so much. The older people just selling things they made for fun, mostly to make room in their homes for more.

    Undergraduate degrees. We’re experiencing a strange educational inflation, where most jobs now require some form of higher education that previously didn’t. I’m not suggesting education is necessarily a bad thing by any means, but it certainty drives a greater division between those that do and don’t go. It’s used to be a 30/70 spilt and now it is 80/20 as to the percentage of people that go and those that don’t, a striking difference.

    There was a fish sauce that Romans used to eat. No one is sure what the recipe was precisely, but accounts say it was delicious. Even if we had the complete recipe, we would never be able to make it. The Romans ate so much of it that the fish species they made it from went extinct.

    As "Garum" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garum) actually was made from rotten fish intestines, I think I would pass anyway... But they also managed to get the Silphium plant extinct. The plant was used primarily for birth control in roman times. Obviously the romans had a huge need for this, as they eradicated the plant completely.

When I was looking for a house it was obvious that a house was flipped as soon as we started walking around,. Buy a fixer up for cheap and do it yourself, that way you control the work done.

    We had an amazing Halloween house in our small town, walking distance from my place. Every year the family who owned it would bring in Hollywood level props and lighting and 10 or so actors in full regalia to replicate a Pirates of the Caribbean scene all around the property. The Jack Sparrow was a dead ringer for Johnny Depp. Every kid would get a bag full of real candy, not the mini Halloween stuff. Unfortunately people started coming from other towns and it turned into a mob scene to the point that cops had to direct traffic and they shut it down.

    The beach resort I live close to used to be pretty much just vacationers from within my state. We’re not southern enough to be warm year round, so the busy season is mid-May to end of September (lots of people don’t want to be there until after the kids go back to school, plus it’s not as hot and the ocean water is still warm). 50-60 years ago, kids who just graduated high school or college would spend the week after graduation there. We call them “Junebugs”. One week for high school and one for college (they graduated different weeks), and only kids from the local or in-state schools. Then word got out, and now kids from schools in all the surrounding states started coming down, and their schools graduate different weeks than ours (some states get heavier snow than we do), so now Junebug season isn’t just one or two weeks, it runs from the end of May all the way through the end of June. The kids got to be so rude, obnoxious, drunk, wasted (and not laid back and happy drunk or wasted, either, but dangerously and violently drunk and wasted), and so destructive to people’s property that the local police force has to hire a load of summer cops to handle the amount of calls they get. Basically double their year round number of officers. There have also been murders and sexual assaults resulting from unsupervised 18-22 year olds, who are just not old enough to recognize when a situation is going bad and it’s time to leave before it gets worse, and not authoritative enough to very loudly nd publicly tell someone to f*****g leave them alone. Throw in raging hormones and a lack of critical thinking skills, and you get the picture. It is a f*****g mess, and drives the family vacationers away. Oh, and the f*****g entitled parents of the f*****g entitled kids! “Oh, MY honor student wouldn’t do that!” Well sir, they took Polaroids of everything they did, if you’d like us to send you copies (yeah, you know damned well that hefty check for the damages their “honor student” did would be overnighted! Still wonder if the parents ever made their “honor students” pay them back as a consequence. Probably not. Sadly). Sorry for the F-bombs. I used to both live and work IN the resort. Off season was nice and quiet. In season was a f*****g nightmare. When I changed jobs and moved way outside the resort, I swear it was like getting out of jail. Summer months, summer holidays, and summer weekends aren’t the pain in the a*s they are at the beach. And it is QUIET out here in the boonies!

    Right now, fanfiction.

    Oh boy, take a look through some of the nonsense started because of tictok and Twitter.

    There's still a lot of great stuff out there, but the anti-everything-I-personally-dislike mentality and the if-its-not-100%-unproblematic-you're-a-monster-for-writing-it ideals that showed up in the last few years is baffling.

    It's fanfiction. Sorry, I guarantee it's never going to be a 100% wholesome or sfw... that's literally the point.

    Plus, it is fabulous to see minors suddenly invading established Fandom spaces and yelling weird regurgitated Christian purity slogans and censorship arguments straight out of the 1980s and the 1960s.

    And they are SHOCKED when you point this out and show them sources from those times saying the exact same things. Like sweetheart, you're literally quoting stuff from the anti dungeons and dragons satanic panic days...

    I've mentioned this before but in the early 2000s I got into record collecting. I got a record player from Salvation Army for like $5, and people would just give you records. I would buy boxes of records for $2-3 from garage sales. If every single record in there sucked a*s, who cares - I was out $2 and I usually got a milk crate out of the deal! I found so much great music that I probably would have never come across otherwise, and part of the joy for me was exactly that - finding new music to listen to. Now the same things that I picked out of someone's garbage are $30 at a picked over, overorganized store and god forbid you want to get a recent release - the 150 gram audiophile on super cotton candy swirl double album deluxe of whatever is the flavor of today will run you $60 and you better preorder so it can arrive at your door six months later than it was scheduled to in a package that isn't fit to transport styrofoam and left in a puddle and f****n A I hate my post office driver.

    That’s because the true collectors get priced out of their hobby by people who are merely in it for an investment. Same goes for art collecting. If you’re not a billionaire, you can forget buying any original—-unless you’re lucky enough to buy really early works from an artist who later become famous.

    Financial news. It used to be non-biased and actually contain information and ideas. They genuinely wanted the readers go make money if it worked. For example, "Here's a good company that if you have some extra cash you should buy. It has these great qualities and here's the history of how it started and what it can do".

    Now its b******t like 'Motely Fool' and 'Bazinga' that are owned by mega-corporations that lead sheep to slaughter. The mega corps buy a company on mass, causing a stock price increase. Then they release an article about why you should buy it, which causes slight increases in price. Because of said increases, they short it (bet against where they profit if the price decreases). Then, they sell their entire stake at a small % gain and plummet the price to cash out on the short options. Retail investors get screwed because of the 'News'

For example Sea of Thieves, i can't play the game anymore without getting raided by other players regardless if i have loot, and even when i try to play a story adventure i can't complete it coz of tw*tty players.

    In my dorm room, there was a vending machine that, with just the perfect push of the button, would dispense two sprites. For a few of us, it lasted around 6 months. Then they fixed the machine after one loose lip led to another. Open lips snatch sips.

    Script writing is ruined by sheer amount of everyone who touches a pen today can write for big movies. It is a hunt if you want to watch a good movie and it is mainly a problem with the script.

    It is inflated.

    And from the number of movies that come out too, you basically habe no time or spafe to discover the golden script in pile of dogshit.

    "habe no time or spafe" - Well thankfully it doesn't look like the contributor will be adding to the pile of people who think they can write :)

    Whatever the hot new tourism spot is

    For example my grandfather used to spend weekends in Nashville when it was a more down to earth low key town

    Now it’s one of the hottest travel destinations and is just swamped everywhere

    So basically most of the complaints about things being ruined is because the population of the world has increased and decent places to live are overcrowded. Yet half of the USA's population is against providing easy access to birth control, and promotes having more children on the planet.

    Made lakeside cabins. A few cabins is peaceful and fun. Filling the lakeside with cabins makes it loud and like being in town. (Disclaimer, I don’t own a cabin) *this is me just remembering someone else saying this*

    Toronto Globe & Mail literary quiz. 100 obscure literary questions. Winners got G&M merch. Obscure enough that you had to go to the library, the bookstore and antivirus your computer from all the little websites you had to search to find the answers. I was one of the winners once. The next year I shared answers with a couple of people who shared theirs with me. Little did we know where we shared them was searchable by Google. The G&M got overwhelmed with right answers and promptly retired the contest.
